If there's an award for the most heartbreaking end to a season, Seguin could have claimed it in 2010.

Trailing Wagner 7-6 in Week 10 with the winner clinching a playoff spot, the Matadors reached the 1-yard line, but were pushed back by a penalty and missed a game-winning 23-yard field goal. They had to watch Wagner go on to the state quarterfinals.

But coach Wayne Walker said there were plenty of lessons from the hardships in his first season at Seguin, which should help in 2011.

Ty Miles, the Matadors' leading receiver last season, switches to QB to replace three-year starter Brig Gerlich in the Matadors' spread offense.
